[REBOL] Cool small program. :)
From: bga:bug-br at: 20-Dec-2002 10:49
After not doing anything with Rebol for the past months (mostly
beacuse, as you guys are probably aware, I use BeOS and Rebol is as
buggy as it can be on this platform), I decided to create something fun
with it. The result was Daily Strip. You can get it from:
http://www.bebits.com/app/3187/
What it does is to fetch some comic strips from the internet and
display them in a window. It is not the most exciting Rebol program
ever nor it uses any advanced technique. In fact, I am probably doing
some dumb stuff in the code and using more code then it is necessary,
but the main point is that I commented the entire code (there are more
comments than code in it) to try to help people just sarting with
Rebol.
Any comments/suggestions/critics are welcome. I hope you guys like it.

Ps: I developed it for BeOS so the script itself is called "Daily
Strip" with a space in the name adno ".r" extension. Just rename it to
DailyStrip.r
or something like that if you're using Windows. Also the
first line is a she-bang line to make the script automatically run with
Rebol. It assumes the rebol (view) executable is located in the /boot/
home/config/bin directory, so just change that to the correct location
on your system if you're running Linux.
